Bill & The Thread: Read this posting from Free Republic to see how the Clintonistas control the media. What they do should be illegal. THE STINK OF THIS VISIT WILL NOT SOON GO AWAY---Clinton Visits Kentucky Government Opinion Source: The Vigo Examiner. Published: 6/9/1999 Author: The Vigo Examiner. Posted on 07/09/1999 19:01:59 PDT by Joe Montana Vigo-Examiner.com Fri, 9 Jul 1999 "Civil Rights" in Kentucky . Last night, after seeing on the news about Clinton's dog- and-pony show in Hazard, Kent. yesterday, I sent an e-mail to a friend who lives in Hyden, Kent. (about 20 miles from Hazard) jokingly asking if Hyden had been overrun with unmarked cars containing men wearing dark sunglasses and business suits. This morning I got his answer (below) and I was NOT joking. I got my friend's permission to distribute his letter on the condition that I strip all personal identifications and the call letters of the TV and radio stations referred to. [My friend is a public employee and he does NOT want to lose his job.] Marvin Gardner Sons of Liberty Georgia ---------------------------------------------- My phone, -------------'s phone, was tapped for the last eight days. Don't know about the e-mail. This morning I checked again and the taps were off. A good friend in the security business suggested I place some of his equipment on our lines and it has paid off. Slick was less than 20 miles away, but I would not walk across the street to see him. The liberal paper says that 30,000 people came to see him. I can say for a fact that only 4,000 were there. The crowd looks big because the town is so small. Only 5,400 live in Hazard. You could not put 30,000 people in all of this city. Yes, their cars and vans were everywhere, and this was on Saturday. Every downtown business had an agent at the door. You were watched every minute and the business owners were very mad at these people for driving business away. On Monday I am told that if you went into a business you were not allowed to leave it. You had to stay inside, just in case you hid a weapon there over the weekend. Metal Detectors were everywhere and have a counter on them. This is how I got the 4,000 person figure. There were three to five uniformed police per block, untold plain clothes state police and the secret service were everywhere. Helicopters circled the city non stop, one mile to five miles from the area he was to be in. It made a great circus. The only comments that were allowed on TV were the positive ones. I have a friend that works for W--- TV News in Hazard, the edited film of the negative comments was "picked up". W---, a patriot radio station was not allowed to set up and record the events of the day. Plenty was said about it on the station yesterday, and it was broadcast this morning that W--- has got a call from the FCC already this morning making an appointment to "review" the station license. I am a big supporter of W--- and will help those boys any way I can. This crap the government has spread all over America has come close to home, and it is getting deeper all the time. The stink of this visit will not soon go away.freerepublic.com
